1 From January to December, 2014, there were 362 HIV cases and 190 AIDS cases reported in Mecklenburg County. HIV disease represents all diagnoses of HIV infection regardless of
the stage of the disease. Therefore AIDS cases are considered a subset of HIV Disease. HIV disease reports and AIDS case reports should never be combined to estimate an infected
population, and should be considered separately. During the same time period, there were 234 cases of Syphilis (primary, secondary, early latent) reported.
2 Category A Bioterrorism Agents/Disease including pathogens that are rarely seen in the United States and that pose a risk to national security because they can be easily disseminated or
transmitted from person to person; result in high mortality rates and have the potential for major public health impact; might cause public panic and social disruption; and require special
action for public health preparedness.
3 Case numbers are lower than expected or not available due to transition to a new reporting system.
4. Rabies: (February 1 rabid racoon)
